Wicked Highland Wishes

By Julie Johnstone

Description

Desire tempted them. Honor forbade them. Love ensnared them.

Legendary warrior Lachlan MacLeod has never encountered anything or anyone he could not conquer. But when his younger brother confesses his love for Bridgette MacLean—the only woman Lachlan has ever wanted—Lachlan turns away from the beautiful Scottish lass, vowing to be no more than her friend. Yet his need for Bridgette enslaves him and may well prove to be the one thing he cannot defeat.

Fiercely independent Bridgette longs to be treated as an equal to the men. She always imagined great battles in her future, not great love. Then Lachlan saw her as no one ever had and captured her heart, awakening new cravings inside her without realizing it. But when Lachlan’s younger brother suffers a grave injury while saving her life, she feels unable to deny his plea for her heart. However, it is impossible to give what belongs to another…

Torn between their own desire and their loyalties, Bridgette and Lachlan must find the courage to grasp the passion awaiting them and face the pain their choice will cause. Yet even as they confront their future and love finally seems within their grasp, a fight for the Scottish throne divides the Highland clans and Bridgette becomes a pawn in a political game that threatens to tear her and Lachlan apart forever.

This book had me laughing and crying. There are some dark places, but love shines its light to warm your heart. I loved Bridgette's strength from the beginning. I held my breath at times when she did as she pleased. Lachlan was a very caring man with a big heart. The history behind the story was intriguing. I highly recommend this story, part of a series but does standalone.
I received an ARC of this book. I am voluntarily reviewing this.

Wicked Highland Wishes indeed

Julie Johnstone has done it again! I was instantly attached to the character Bridgette MacLean for her fierceness and spirit. Her heart has belonged to Lachlan MacLeod, brother to the laird, from the moment they shared her first kiss in the woods. She can't get him out of her head nor her heart from all those years ago. Lachlan is the type of man every woman would love to have, either as their lover or husband, but he can't deny the fact that there is something special about Bridgette. Loved the way the story just draws you in with everyhting going on. There are moments that I felt transported into the story itself. Do yourself a favor and give this a read- you won't be disappointed.

Another Terrific Highland Romance!

I continue to be enthralled with Ms. Johnstone’s medieval romances. This one is about another of the MacLeod brothers, Lachlan, who is involved in a private feud with his brother Graham, who has declared he will marry Bridgette MacLean only because he seeks to win her from his brother Lachlan’s regard due to his jealousy. There are a couple of other intrigues going on in this Highland romance, including a long lost sister and a vengeful man who wishes to marry Bridgette as well as Graham and Lachlan, and a nefarious plan to steal the Faery Flag from the MacLeod Clan whose faith in the flag is thought to be the reason for their winning so many battles. But Bridgette’s and Lachlan’s love is so strong that they survive these many battles despite all of the stumbling blocks put in their way. An exciting, action-filled love story not to be missed!
